This looks dope. I live at the command line and ssh is secure and good. Question on pricing. Because if I invest time in this I’d like to know it will be around. Sure I’ll have the data and can push to anything else but it’s still nice to know that this will be paid and reasonably around for years to come.
We have heard this a couple of times and read you loud and clear. We would price the blog to pay for its costs. Join #pico.sh on libera or sub to https://hey.prose.sh to get updates
Glad to hear it!
They have commented elsewhere that they are experimenting to see what "sticks", so definitely assume this may disappear soon. OTOH, code is open and easy to self host.
if you're worried about this going away, why not use something like hugo. It's markdown, and there are dozens of places that will host for free. I host on Netlify (free). If they go away or start charging, I have many more options, and as it's hugo/markdown, there's no lock-in. You can do that on the command line (ultimately it's just a text editor and git).
Did not know about netlify hosting Hugo for free. Thanks for the tip.
